No, never (although I've been to Vegas twice). Is that the base rate or for an additional driver? If that's the base rate... yikes... CDP, find a good PC, I really don't know Have you looked at the numerous HLEs in Vegas? Maybe take a hotel shuttle and then walk to a HLE/hotel with a HLE in it.

I've also never rented a SCAR before, I've reserved it but the closest I've ever come to driving one was when I booked a Corolla in MLB and drove off with a F-tagged Fusion (lol). So maybe book a mid-size and you might get lucky -- after all it's Vegas! Fun fact: the LAS airport location has the largest selection of any Hertz station in the country!

If it makes you feel any better, the cheapest car in NY right now is a mid-size SUV (Rav4) at $42 a day... the Kia Rio is $60+
